The next day, in the court.

“…… As for the position of the crown prince, which has been discussed for a long time, I have naturally made a decision. It's just that if the crown prince's position is decided too early, it will definitely not be beneficial to the stability of the court. So last night I wrote the candidate on the dragon scroll and stored it, and if I am not in danger, I will tell you where he is, and take it out when I die. ”

"It records the real candidate for the next Son of Heaven, and only it counts!" When Emperor Tiansheng's words fell, all the courtiers were silent for a while, looking at each other and silent for a long time.

And this strange scene did not last long, and soon turned into a noisy argument.

"Your Majesty, is there anything wrong with this move, no one has tried this move since ancient times, the risk is too great!"

"Yes, Emperor Tiansheng has a long life, there may be too many changes over the years, and you can't make a hasty decision."

"Yes, I hope the emperor will think twice!"

Everyone knelt on the ground together, begging Emperor Tiansheng to revise his decision.

And Emperor Tiansheng just sneered, his arm hung down on the dragon chair, the emotions in his eyes turned a few times, and finally said: "This crown prince's position has long been decided by one person and two people, and now it's not as good as you mean?" ”

"There is no room for negotiation in this matter, retreat!" Tiansheng Emperor Long Yan was furious, and stood up suddenly, the emperor's aura around him was even more powerful, and everyone had nowhere to say even if they had something to say.

Looking at the back of Emperor Tiansheng leaving, the noise of everyone sounded again. Everyone has their own thoughts in their hearts, but one thing is certain, I am afraid that another great chaos will rise in the court!

However, at some point, Zhuang Mingyue got the news and sneaked into the palace and avoided all the guards.

Just when no one was looking, she left through the back door of the palace again, and a bronze-colored scroll was hidden under her sleeve. Others may not know, but those in the know can recognize it, it is definitely the dragon pattern scroll written by Emperor Tiansheng.

As for what's in it...... Naturally, it is needless to say!

And this news quickly spread to the ears of the powerful in the capital, and Long Zhengning was naturally no exception.

He was originally sitting on the chair, frowning when he heard the words, the darkness under his eyes was much more profound, and a coldness surrounded him.

"He opened his mouth so openly in the court? Don't hide your intentions at all? Long Zhengning was furious, slapped the table and stood up, coldly.

The eyeliner was frightened, his shoulders trembled, and he barely managed to stabilize his voice: "Yes......"

"Hmph, doesn't that mean that the world will not pass on the throne to me, and this country is destined not to be mine? It's nice to say, saying that it's opening after death, isn't it just to make me die? He finally couldn't bear it anymore, and when he saw that the eyeliner was getting more and more unpleasant, he raised his leg and kicked away: "Get out, roll as far as you want, I don't want to see you!" ”

If the eyeliner was amnesty, he crawled away.

"It's not that easy to get me to give up! If you don't let me ask for it, I'm going to take it away! The darkness in Long Yuanxiu's eyes deepened, and finally he held the corner of the table tightly, exerting a huge force in his hand, and his finger bones turned slightly white under such pressure.

Late at night, the lights in Long Zhengning's study were bright.

A secret meeting was taking place under everyone's noses, and everyone was gathered around a table, surrounded by the subordinates of Long Zhengning's most trusted cronies for so many years.

"This old immortal said that it would not be worrying to die, and it made us bother and work hard to do this." One of them spat indignantly.

Although Long Zhengning didn't say anything, a hint of approval flashed in his dark eyes, and he said lightly: "It's absolutely impossible for brothers to give up so simply, right?" I don't want to, if I get the country, I can still have a share of you. If someone else gets it, you won't even be able to keep your head! ”

Long Zhengning is telling the truth, they helped him do a lot of bad things back then, thanks to Long Zhengning's tree, which is still evergreen and can shelter them. But what if one day he falls?

Then there is only one fate for them, and that is death.

"What do we think we should do now? Brothers will definitely listen to you. "The righteous man just now answered first.

The others echoed one after another, and they strengthened their determination to follow Long Zhengning all the time.

"Are you sure?" Long Zhengning glanced at them, the corners of his mouth hooked slightly, and he lowered his voice and said word by word: "I only thought of one way, and that is to forge it!" ”

"Forge a dragon-shaped scroll?!" Everyone couldn't help but exclaim, and immediately shut up after speaking.

Not to mention whether it can succeed or not, but as long as you start to do it, it is a big crime committed by bullying the king, and if you are caught, you will have to connect the nine clans!

"What? I'm scared before I do it, so don't dare? Long Yuanxiu stood up and looked down at them, and a wave of coercion fell.

Everyone was silent for a long time, as if they were struggling, and finally one of them first said: "We don't have a choice, we can only do it!" ”

"Do! If you don't do it, you're dead, and if you do it, there's at least a little way to live! ”

"Let's do it together, let's die together!"

……

Seeing one person after another defecting, the next few naturally did not dare to resist, and they strengthened their determination together.

"As for how to do it, it depends on you, if you need anything to come to me again, I will definitely help if I can." Seeing that it was not early and this place was not very safe, Long Zhengning ended the meeting early.

Everyone left scattered, and in the end, only Long Zhengning was left.

He sat back in his seat, staring at the open door and feeling a little flustered.

Originally, he didn't want to do this, but Emperor Tiansheng forced him to embark on this path step by step.

Since he can't bear it, he won't preach morality in the future, so he will fight for this country and see who will spend it!

Thinking like this, he suddenly relaxed his eyebrows, no longer hiding his emotions, and the rest of his eyebrows were full of evil and gloom, and there was no softness anymore.

Long Zhengning's subordinates were naturally not simple people, and after getting the task, they quickly started to act.

Naturally, the shrewd subordinates will not let go of this opportunity, and seeing that Long Zhengning intends to seek power and usurp the throne, he will naturally add a big fire.

He went to find the most prestigious and bold clothing shop in the black market, bought the five-clawed golden dragon material, and found a relationship to find an embroidery girl from other places for a long time, which can be regarded as making the prototype of the dragon robe.

Not only that, but he also invited the gods in the black market, gathered thousands of soldiers and wrote a plan to assassinate Emperor Tiansheng.

After these two things were completed, they were handed to Long Zhengning together to express their loyalty.

It was in the middle of the night when the night was dark and windy, and his subordinates sneaked into Long Zhengning's mansion to present these two things, eagerly looking forward to Long Zhengning's next reaction.

Looking at the golden dragon robe in front of her and the plan at her fingertips, the smile in Long Zhengning's eyes was already revealed, and she couldn't help laughing: "Okay, good, I haven't raised you in vain for so many years, and you can still help me do something practical!" ”

"That's nature, and my subordinates are willing to go to the soup for you!" This subordinate is a powerful person, and naturally he knows how to please Long Zhengning, so he took the initiative to talk up.

Sure enough, Long Yuanxiu's eyes raised with a smile, and he helped him up with good interest, "That's not necessary, as long as you do what you promised, I will be able to ensure that you will be able to ensure that you will be above 10,000 people under one person in the future!" ”

Hearing this, the subordinate's shrewd eyes flashed with joy, and he raised his voice: "If this can be like this, the subordinate can be regarded as dying without regrets!" ”

"Tut-tut, that can't be that easy. What I'm saying can't be fulfilled yet, but there's something I can give you right now. A look of approval flashed in Long Zhengning's eyes, and he waved his hand freely, called the servants, and whispered a few words in their ears.

After the words fell, the servants left, and the subordinates waited quietly with anticipation.

After a while, the servant came again, carrying a small heavy box in front of him.

"Well, this is what I can give you now, take it first, even if it's a deposit later." The prince pushed the box on the table forward and unlocked it casually, and the glittering gold was shining in the center of the box.

The subordinate rubbed his eyes, cautiously approached, and asked tentatively, "Lord Wang, this is for me?" ”

"Yes." Seeing this, Long Zhengning disdained twice in his heart, after all, what money can buy is indeed easy to come by.

When his subordinates got this box of treasures, they were naturally very grateful, and they couldn't wait to kowtow to him twice before leaving.

This side is the wine pond meat forest, while Long Yuanxiu and Zhuang Mingyue are a little dull.

Back in the capital, Long Yuanxiu looked at this familiar street scene and couldn't help but sigh: "It's back again, this familiar place." ”

He has grown up for many years, but he has long lost his affection, and all that remains is bland.

Long Yuanxiu patted him on the back and said softly, "That's it, this time we didn't come back for the capital, just for them." ”

For the sake of Emperor Tiansheng and Long Yuanxiu's mother, this trip will definitely not be able to escape.

The carriage drove slowly on the official road, and soon arrived at the gate of the palace, as well guarded as ever, but it had a different flavor from the past.

Long Yuanxiu slowly raised his hand to open the curtain and said, "Let us in, there is something important." ”

The guards outside the palace gate naturally knew Long Yuanxiu's current identity, and he was just a grass man after removing the title of the prince. But because of the scenery of the past, no one dared to refuse for a while.

In the middle of the night, the leader-like person stood up and shouted, "I'm sorry, I need a token to enter the palace, please give me a look." ”

Token? Long Yuanxiu couldn't help but sneer, how could they possibly have tokens?

There was some silence for a while, and his personal attendant couldn't stand it anymore, and replied dissatisfiedly: "This is the prince!" Do you dare to stop this? It's a bit too bold......"
